Message From Elder Hinton 5/17/10

so this guy named jack beadling.... we started teaching him 3 weeks ago.... we go to teach him the 2nd lesson last week and he said that he read half of 3 nephi and all of 1st nephi...his 23 year old son john was there....for the first 30 minutes we were there he explained to john everything he had read in full detail...it was awesome....after he was done we taught the plan of salvation and set up a lesson to come back the following thursday (a couple days ago)...so we go back the following week to teach the 3rd lesson and he has completely finished the Book of Mormon and is starting to reread it so he can understand it more fully. So we teach him the 3rd lesson and commit him to come to church and we get a family in the ward to come pick him up....he stayed for all three blocks yesterday and LOVED IT.... fit right in... everyone in the ward fellowshipped him...it was great....so we are going back this thursday to teach the 4th lesson and we are going to set a baptismal date. Denise also vame to church and we will have a date set with her and her son this thursday...hopefully.... so that is the exciting news!!!
Love
Elder Hinton
